How to unlock the Surf's Up achievement in Saints Row 2 - Definitive Guide

To get this achievement in single player you need to stand in front of a car to have it slow down. Make sure that it is a car that you can jump on top of (Trucks, buses and other higher vehicles will not work), also the vehicle must have a roof. Get on top of the roof face towards the front of the car and it will give you the option to hit Y for the Car Surfing Diversion. Once your surfing a balance bar will appear similar to the ones that show on the Tony Hawk games. You only need to surf 15-20 seconds to get the 3 Gold Stars once achieved jump off or lose your balance to end the surf and there is your achievement.

Easiest way to get this achievement is during co-op mode. Just get the other player to Drive on the freeway with you on the hood. Easier than trying to maintain your balance around corners with NPC's.

If not try to stay on the freeway.. the straighter the road the better.

Jump onto a car being driven by an NPC or co-op partner, and a message will pop up instructing you to press A to vehicle surf. Just keep your balance as your stars accumulate. Half way through you are given the option to do a headstand, which will give you stars quicker but is harder to keep balance.

Stay balanced untill you get 3 gold stars and your done.

You also get a parking cone hat for getting a 3 gold stars vehicle surf distraction.

Do it in co-op and make your friend drive slow because the faster you go the harder to keep your balance and do it on a motorway for a straight road

In order to vehicle surf, simply run in front of any civilian car in order to get it to slow down and stop, in the same way you would hijack a car. Instead of hijacking it, hit to jump on top of the car. Obviously, the car must have a roof and be low enough to jump on top of. Get on the roof and wait for the car to start driving. When the game prompts you to, hit to start surfing. If you hit any sooner, you will hijack the car. You will then start balancing on the roof of the car, and a meter will pop up a la Tony Hawk. You can hit again to do a handstand, but all that will do is make it harder to balance. Use to keep your player steady. It will take 15-20 seconds to get three gold stars, at which point you will have to throw yourself off to end the Surfing session and get the achievement.
